1353. The Most Difficult Year (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
O'Neill, who was played bad by Liu Mang, became the object of ridicule, which O'Neill endured, and finally made headlines in major media this time.
But now that the Suns are back in the spotlight, O'Neal isn't so happy.
The Suns started so badly that they fell to 10th in the West at most at the end of the first month, and many fans lost the idea of paying attention to the Suns.
Although in terms of ratings, it is not good for the Suns, but it has given the Suns time to slowly adjust, and it has taken almost a month for them to adjust the offensive side of things, and the two rhythms have brought them a wave of consecutive wins and returned to sixth place in the West.
What they're going to do now is defensively.
But Liu Mang's analysis of this wave is bound to make other teams find their current changes and target them.
For the Suns, this is a big problem.
The Western Conference playoffs are fiercely competitive, with the Suns now 17-13 and the ninth-place Rockets in the West 15-15......
On the night of December 22, when O'Neal's side loved and hated Liu Mang, Liu Mang's side had already started the second meeting of the season with his teammates and the Mavericks.
The East and West Bulls have been doing so well this season that it's hard not to pay attention to those associated with the NBA.
Liu Mang has also been paying attention to them, the Mavericks played their 30th game of the season on the 20th, and now they are still at their strongest, ranking first in the league with 26 wins and 4 losses, which is ranked after the Hawks in the 03-04 season, the 05-06 season and the Lakers in the 99-00 season, the fourth best start since the new century, better than the Hawks, Pistons, and Suns in the 04-05 season.
Not only that, but it is the best performance in the history of the NBA, and those who can make such a start are basically 65+ wins at the end of the season.
Nowitzki's performance made Liu Mang feel a little bit, averaging 24.6 points, 8.8 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game, and the data has declined to a certain extent from the beginning of the season, but the corresponding efficiency is extremely high!
That's when he averaged 32 minutes per game......
Sometimes after the first half, the Mavericks have already sealed the victory, and they average 102 points per game, which is not high, after all, the league averages nearly 99 points per game, but they limit their opponents to only 92 points per game......
10 points of net difference!
The most terrifying thing is that the Mavericks only have Nowitzki and Jamal Crawford playing more than 30 minutes, one 32 minutes, one 33 minutes, and 11 players playing more than 10 minutes, 10 of which are more than 15 minutes......
Although the Eagles also have as many as 10 players who have played more than 10 minutes, and there are 9 players who have played more than 15 minutes, the difference in record is obvious.
The Mavericks have been polishing the multi-person rotation singles tactics and high-speed rotation defense system for many years, and it has reached its peak from this season's regular season, compared to the Hawks, who are also multi-person rotations, have a much more mediocre record.
The Hawks, who had just beaten the Suns to win three in a row, met the Mavericks and the winning streak was ended.
Liu Mang got 19 points, 7 boards and 7 assists, Maddie scored 28 points, Marion also got 11 points and 13 boards, every time the Hawks are about to turn back the situation, Liu Mang's mid-range shooting and Maddy's cut score and empty three-point are doing well, and other teammates are also good at receiving Liu Mang's pass, but nowitzki stood up and hit the singles, and got 38 points, 7 boards and 6 assists in the whole game.
101-109, the Hawks lost again to the Mavericks, being swept by a team in the regular season for the first time in four seasons.
The Hawks held the record of three seasons without being swept in the regular season, and it was fixed on three consecutive seasons.
swept the Eagles and made the Silver Horn King a big show.
Several major teams in the West, the Spurs, Suns, and SuperSonics have all been defeated by the Hawks this season, and only the Mavericks have won against the Hawks twice!
Because the target of the sweep is the Eagles, who still maintain good strength after three consecutive championships, Nowitzki has received much more attention than in the original time and space!
……
After playing the Mavericks, Liu Mang and his teammates came to Angel City together.
Being swept by the Mavericks, Liu Mang and his teammates felt uncomfortable, but they could only accept that the Mavericks in the regular season this season were too strong, and Nowitzki even developed a back play, which was stronger than the original time and space, and the Mavericks became stronger because of it.
Liu Mang looked at the Warriors who were competing with the Rockets for eighth place in the West in the Western record rankings, and thought about it not to remind the Mavericks, although Liu Mang had no intention of reminding the Mavericks to pay attention to the Warriors, but now with the hatred of being swept in the regular season, Liu Mang will not remind him.
If the Warriors make the playoffs in eighth place in the West...... Liu Mang thought this was very interesting......
Regardless of whether the Warriors will create miracles or not, the old Nelson faces his old club, and Liu Mang thinks this is very interesting.
When he arrived in Los Angeles, Liu Mang came to his holiday villa, and on the night of the Suns, after celebrating Lori's birthday with a victory, she and her two cubs came to Los Angeles with bodyguards and nannies to wait, preparing things for Christmas.
On the day of arriving in Los Angeles on the 23rd, the Hawks coaching staff had a day off to let the players rest, and Liu Mang returned to the villa for one night.
On the 24th, Christmas Eve, the Hawks still had to prepare for the game against the Lakers.
On the morning of the 24th, Liu Mang came to the stadium rented by the team early, and Maddie, Rondo, and Battier also arrived at the stadium in advance.
Judging from the Mavericks' frantic performance to win, the Lakers will certainly not let them win easily.
Liu Mang feels that the name of the Lakers' new Big Four is a bit exaggerated, and it has not yet reached the point of the Big Four, but the combination of pills is ...... More exaggerated than the average Big Four.
After the loss to the Mavericks, the Hawks' record became 18-10, and the 19-12 Heat team was only half a win away!
On the Raptors' side, relying on the weakness of the division, 17-14 locked the fourth place in the East, the Hawks lost one more game, becoming 18-11, and the record was tied with the Heat, because there is only a Christmas battle between the Hawks and the Lakers this year, the Heat's next opponent is the Hawks who continue to play the East after three consecutive visits in the West, just the two teams played, Liu Mang and his teammates and coaching staff want to maintain at least a little advantage before playing with the Heat.
After the team meeting, Liu Mang, his teammates, and the coaching staff all felt Alexander.
During the warm-up, seeing Maddie, who was frowning because he was going to face Kobe, Liu Mang smiled and said: "I haven't worked so hard for a regular season ranking like this for many years, it feels a little weird." ”
Maddie was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's right...... I've been playing with you for so long, I've forgotten about the regular season standings, you've always been number one. ”
Maddie has almost forgotten the feeling of fighting for a playoff spot, and now fighting for a ranking feels similar.
"yes, this season is tougher than before, even tougher than my rookie season, the Lakers are 23-7...... They played two more games than us and lost less, so it's so tough to play against......"
Maddie looked at Liu Mang and said this, but there was a smile on his face.
Seeing Liu Mang's excited appearance, Maddie also smiled and didn't continue, everything was silent.
